The cheapest RCF for sale on AT is 6K cheaper than the most expensive ISF!..
-
White and Orange ones seem to take longer to sell on AT or is it just a coincidence?
-
Prices for ISF's are definitely creeping up. When I sold mine last year there were a few around £15K.

I emailed ECP about brembo disc & pads. Below is their reply:
Good Afternoon,
Thanks for your email, and I apologise for the delay in response.
Unfortunately, this is not something we stock in our catalogue. If you know the brembo part numbers suitable for your vehicle, we may be able to order this in for you.
Kind RegardsOliver

@Killysprint congrats on the new car! It's interesting to hear that you think the ISF is quicker... I had a similar first impression when I drove the RCF in D mode but when switched to Sports mode the RC feels slightly quicker..
-
@finest1 if you want to save on road tax there's a imported ISF on AT and the seller says it's only £225 to tax because it's a import!

Dan, is the Aston wheel forged? Would be interesting to compare the weight difference to ISF wheel..

@Big Rat I've heard of Nengun before but not familiar with RS-R products.

@Comedian Sean I’ve looked what the badge on the rear of the Rcf is its these guys.......
Do you think they have involvement with the project for one of the cars most likely the RcF ?

Honestly, I would seriously think about it if I would have a place to keep 2 cars...
But it doesn't have a sunroof 🙂...

Hi Dan, where do you think the first pit-stop will be after leaving Derby and around what Time? I won't be able to meet at Derby and was hoping to join en route.
I'm coming from Manchester airport area...

The isf values will definitely prop up the rcf. The prices @Linas.P you are talking about must have been for higher than average mile cars. I bought my isf for 18k and sold it 2 years later for 18k.
The ISF values are definitely firming up and possibly even rising slightly. This time last year there were a few high mileage ones as low as 13k.
I sold mine for only £500 less than what I paid for it after owning it almost 2 years.

Those Alfa Giulia Quadrixxxxxx... could be a good option in a years time. The cheapest one on AT is £43K for a '17 year car that must have cost well over 60k new.

Probably a great car to drive but just looks like a regular 4 series to the untrained eye on the last 2 photos!

It's his car he can list it at whatever price he values it. No need to justify to anyone...

@Bluethunder Thanx Nean appreciate that, yes it’s either a wrap or replace the trim as it’s the the same used on the Rc Black Edition it’s not that expensive either, bother sides with vat and fitting £166.40
Big Rat
That's very resonable for the sides. It's likely to be my first mod!

@Big RatLooks great Paul in orange and really suits the black. Btw did you find options for de-chroming the sides?

There are more registered LC's than RCF's on Howmanyleft so it's not sold badly considering they've only been around for over a year...

@mrfunex Looks great lightweight rear wheel drive....... race track..... you’ll be giving @Bluethunder Nean ideas now with his 😂

Paul, you're spot on. I've already started looking at all the parts you can buy for a MX5.. It was suppose to be just a cheap runabout😂

@Bluethunder Nean how’s ownership going haven’t seen you post for a while, are you aware of the Peaks Meet end of September?
Or have I missed your posts somewhere...🙄
Anyway back on topic paranoia is normal by the way...... sorry about that......
So we have Mrs Rat little 1.25 Petrol ‘ I live my life in train station car parks’ Fiesta
And my Van that’s been very busy of late......
And the black ‘Kitt’ in between 🤗
Big Rat
Hi Paul, loving the RCF and hoping to join the meet this month but will probably only be the last leg of the drive because busy in the morning.

After buying the RCF I've been very paranoid about where I park it, leave it and putting miles on it...
So I decided to get myself a 2nd car for daily duties. Originally my criteria was cheap to tax/insure/econimcal/ FWD(for winter use)
but ended buying this little gem 🙂 . Very low mileage, FSH and most importantly NO RUST which is a rarity for a MX5!
So, F owners let's see pics of your other car(s).
